Birds Eye View Central & Main Souvenir Postcard Black and white, Farmington, NH postcard showing a birds eye view of Central Street and Main Street in downtown Farmington, facing north, up the Main Street hill, during the day. The Richards Block and Odd Fellows Block buildings can be seen in the photo in the middle-ground. The White Store can be seen. Some of what is left of the Barker Block, in the foreground, can be seen, after the fire took out all of that block, reducing it to rubble. The rubble has been cleared. Trees can be seen throughout the downtown, sans their leaves. A horse is hitched at the Farmington News building. A dozen people seem to be milling about the downtown. The shops appear to be open, as they have their awnings extended. The photo is post electrification. Divided back postcard.

FHS-Kyle LeachUnknownUnknownCirca 1910Goodwin Library Hand Colored Souvenir PostcardA hand colored souvenir postcard Farmington, NH with face featuring The Goodwin Library looking at the building's front, side profile from North Main Street. This two story Neo Classical, brick building is as it was originally built and does not have the back addition that would come later in the twentieth century. The Barker Block extension has not been built, so the north side of the library building does not touch the southern portion of the Barker Block building to the north. The windows in that north side are still in full view in this photo. The Pyhthian Block still stands behind the library building and the side of that building can be seen to the west side, behind library. Divided back postcard.
